Wellbeing resource for parents

Oxfordshire County Council’s public health team is working with partners across Oxfordshire to support the emotional health and wellbeing of children and young people. As part of this work, we would like to share a resource designed to support you in promoting your child’s emotional wellbeing.

Information and Support for Parents and Carers (pdf, 2mb)

The resource provides practical advice and guidance on:

  • Ways to support your child’s wellbeing 
  • Suggestions for talking about mental health and how they are feeling
  • Recognising signs that your child may need extra support
  • Advice on where to find further information and support
  • Signposting to other services and organisations that can provide additional help when needed.

We hope you will find it useful, whether you have current concerns about your child’s wellbeing or simply want to learn more about how to support them. We encourage you to take a few moments to look though it and, where appropriate, share it with other adults who play an important role in child’s life. 

Thank you for everything you do to support your child’s wellbeing.
